I am thoughtful, expressive, and inquisitive.

My Self-Summary

I'm an intelligent, easy-going, fun-loving, outgoing, compassionate and charismatic man who likes to use adjectives whenever possible ;-) I enjoy time with family and friends, being outdoors, traveling, watching live music. But (like everyone else on this thing it seems) I also enjoy quiet nights at home, cooking good food, sharing some wine and good company. Lately, life has been changing fast and I would like to meet someone to share these changes with me. I'm mostly looking to meet new people right now, but romance is always nice and always welcome with the right person.

Ideally, I'd like to meet someone who is passionate in both life and love, patient, caring, knows how to communicate completely with her partner, is intelligent and likes to be spontaneous at times. Generally someone with a positive outlook on life who likes to laugh and be silly at times, but who knows who she is and at least has an idea of where she'd like to be going. There is much more to me and what I'm looking for than this. However, for now, that's all I can muster. If any of this sounds interesting, drop me a line and say hi. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Your can also find me in that space that is mine as Toby, in Chico. Look me up and let's go have a great time. Everyone can use one of those, so what do you have to lose by trying something new. Why else are we on here right? Talk to you soon.

What I’m doing with my life

Currently, I am a freelance journalist and writer, also working part time at a night club in downtown Chico. I always have several projects up in the air, and it gives me the freedom to live the free lifestyle that I have found to be very important. I would ultimately like to work for a NGO (non-governmental organization) for an international aid agency. I'd like to help create change in the world around me. There's a bunch more, but I'm ready for the next box. Besides...a bit of conversation fodder is always good right?

I’m really good at

Communicating intellectually, verbally, emotionally and physically, and quite a bit more too boot.

The first things people usually notice about me

My Smile, height, and eyes.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Wow...I have a profound love for a broad range of music and always looking for something new. The same goes for literature and food. That said...nothing beats good conversation over great Thai, Sushi, Italian or Mexican food. Be in touch. We can talk about the specifics ;-)

The six things I could never do without

Humor, laptop (or pen and paper), good food, tasty libations, cozy bed, great conversation.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Why the hell I have to fill out so many boxes on a dating site, when we are all so close to one another. Also, why great people don't seem to just bump into eachother like they used to.

On a typical Friday night I am

Lately...working. Otherwise I am typically out and about with friends. It really depends on how the week went, who is available to spend time with and the nature of my relationship with those folks.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

Hmmm...I think I'm blushing just a bit. Ask me a question and I'll probably give you an answer. Too many morsels to pick just one.

You should message me if

You like what you've seen and read, and would like to have a great time...or conversation.
